Say a few more words
1, I did not buy water chestnut, so I used lotus root instead, the taste is also good.
2, pork, we must put a little fat, pure lean meat, the taste will be much worse. With a little fat meat, the taste is more tender, and it will not feel greasy to eat.
3, minced ginger, minced green onion must be chopped a little, you can also slice the onion and ginger in advance, and then pour some hot water, soaked into green onion and ginger water, beat into the meat filling in parts, each pour should be fully whipped evenly. In this way, the amount of starch should also be slightly more, which is easier to form.
4, because it is a steaming method, like the old soy sauce such as heavier coloring, it is not suitable for putting, less put a little raw soy sauce can be.
